How many of you would like to take a dip in a pool of GPU’s? No? Something about pain? No worries. Greg Corke from Devlop3D takes a look at How to Buy a Graphics Card for SolidWorks in the next issue of Develop3D.
Instead of feeling like your jumping into deep, unknown waters, he lays out specifics that affect 3D performance and highlights what to look when considering a graphics card for your workstation. Here are some highlights…
It’s not directly CAD related, but it says 3D and has ‘Graphics‘ is the headline, so it’s gotta be kinda interesting. It’s the History of 3D Graphics from MaximumPC and it’s 10 pages choke full of specs and insight to the GPU evolution.
Have you ever wondered how much graphics cards have change over the past few years? How much clockspeed has jumped? If they’re getting any smaller? Check out the differences from 1995 to 2009 of that things putting pretty 3D graphics all over your monitor.
If you’re a fan of meatballs and Nvidia Graphics Cards or “GPU’s” you’re gonna throw noodles in the air and set the table for the new Quadro FX family that has just come into town.
Nvidia has release their 10th generation cards and the “Strongest Professional Graphics Lineup in History” is the byline every GPU manufacturer wishes they could claim. Does it stand up to the new Quadro line-up that has been a staple of graphics professionals and CAD users?
Let’s take a look and see which one would work best for SolidWorks and other 3D CAD tools.
